Forum Overview :: Alpha Protocol :: Writing's useless if the play control sucks

[quote name="jeep"][quote name="Lizard_King"]The caveat is that if you played the PC version only I could see being upset with it. The graphics are glitchy, and the combat can be frustrating thanks to those problems. The xbox version is far superior in terms of optimization. I would still play it if PC was my only option, but the xbox and presumably the puss3 version (?) are where it's at. Either way, I'm pretty sure the 360 controller is the best way to handle it. Rent, then buy to support the cause. [/quote] I love story RPGs man but if it's not turn-based, the play control has to be smooth. There is no sliding scale for it, there are no points for effort. They made a playable thing or they did not. They didn't come up just shy of the goal, they released <i>another</i> unfinished game. I'll rent the 360 version and try it, but the PC one <i>isn't done</i>. I love the writing in their games and I'd probably take a 50% pay cut to go work there and be around the process, but I'd be personally embarrassed releasing something in this state. /jeep/ ...50% of nothing I quit my job and moved to california.[/quote]
